Description

Started at the car park at Capel Curig. Waled along NW to the campsite at Gwern Gof Uchat. Up around the East of Tryfan Bach. Up West to the start of the Heather terrace path. Made my way along to the saddle just south Far South Peak. Made my way to the summit of Far South Peak. The wind and rain at this point was really strong so I made my down to the lower ground to Llyn Bochlwyd. From here pushed West to Llyn Idwal, did a lap of the lake and got to Ogwen cottage. From here I crossed the road to the other side of Llyn Ogwen . Waled to the end of the lake, crossed the road to the campsite and headed back along the low ground to capel Curig practising some nav where the visibility was better for me.
Today was tough up top because of the wind so I concentrated on getting some more experience with a 1:50,000 map scale in lower ground where I could train.

Area : Glyderau

The Glyderau (a Welsh plural form, also known in English as the Glyders) are a mountain group in Snowdonia, North Wales. The name derives from the highest peaks in the range, Glyder Fawr and Glyder Fach. According to Sir Ifor Williams, the word "Glyder" derives from the Welsh word "Cludair", meaning a heap of stones.
